I mean, sure, that's very funny, but please don't help feed the right-wing lie falsely equating democratic socialism with communism.

To be clear, all socialism, communism included, is democratic. "Democratic Socialism" just refers to reformist socialism, in most cases, or is used to make social democracy seem more appealing. Mamdani has expressed support for more radical groups online, though, so it's clear that he isn't just your typical social democrat at minimum.
